Chalet Lores - Val D'Isere, France

Chalet Lores started life as a traditional Alpine restaurant and bar but gained cult status amongst the French when it featured in the 1979 cult comedy classic film “Les Bronzés font du ski”. Now a firm favourite with British skiers, the owners are extremely proud of their property and its heritage and have lovingly renovated it in keeping with the quirky 70’s eccentricity it has become known for. All bedrooms are of a good size and all bar one boast renovated, brightly coloured bathrooms, again in keeping with the original style of the property. The sociable open-plan lounge, bar and dining room is warm and inviting, the perfect place to relax around the sunken open fireplace or perch at the bar. With so much quirkiness and charm, it is hard not to love Chalet Lorés and early booking is recommended.Superbly located on the main street of Val d’Isere at the top end of town, Chalet Lores is within a snowball’s throw of many après-ski attractions. You also have access to the whole ski area of this world class resort nearby as the pistes are just a 400 metres (approx.) walk away and the ski bus stops just 75 metres (approx.) from the chalet.

NB: Please note that the bar is still licensed as a public bar and guests may not consume their own alcohol in this area.

Chalet Lores Reviews

Wonderful week of sunshine and spring snow in Val. The Lores was excellent with a really helpful and cheerful bunch of staff from Ski World, led by Becky, and a rep, Tim, who actually did his job effectively. The food was outstanding and the catered option really good value in Val as the price of eating out in now pretty steep. The Lores is a great location just up from the centre of town past the Morris Pub (Great music). Well done Iglu Ski.

comme ci comme ça 12/01/2015

This quirky chalet is full of interesting decor from days gone by and has plenty of communal space for large groups. It was clean and tidy and the rooms had plenty of storage as well as modern en suite bathrooms in excellent condition. It can be a bit noisy through the night and in the early morning if you are unlucky enough to have a room facing the street. The ski/boot room is abysmally small for a chalet of this size - I have seen bigger in 8 person chalets! The Skiworld staff were very friendly and happy to help us settle in and answer our questions, but the food, especially breakfast, was a massive let down.
